How do you manually activate the laser if I do not want to use the Viridian holster?

There is a small button on the left side of the laser. Because it fits flush on the side of the laser (I imagine to prevent accidental shutoff when making contact with the holster), it does require a deliberate press to turn on/off. I have arthritis in my hands and I do not have any difficulty activating the button. However I would not want to do that in a defensive situation.

There is a tiny rubber button on the left side of the laser near the front...difficult IMO to manipulate in a extreme situation...but I get tons more battery life just leaving mine turned off as I do a lot of practice with the built in sites. But push it once and the laser pulses, push button again and it's on constant. Push button a third time and it shuts back off.

I have never used the laser but I would like to have it for convenience when working in places with less light.

hello, you have to take apart the laser to replace the battery and in order to do so you must roll back the grip a little ways to get access to the whole unit. but you do not have to remove the grip completely

On the laser there's a button on the back of it. On the flashlight there's a squeeze button

There is a holster and it has a double switch to work the stun. The switch forward one time for the light and forward again to activate the gun, but then you have to push a button.

No. I would never buy this product. Therefore, I have no manual. I own a $20 product that does exactly the same thing, but with a weaker red laser. You stick it on the end of the barrel using the magnet and turn on the switch. You adjust your scope until the reticle lines up with the laser dot. After that, you will be on paper, so remove the laser sight and begin normal sight adjustments using live ammo.

The holster can be worn on the right side as IWB or on the left side as OWM. I love my laser but it literally eats the batteries while it is stored!!

If it's a crimson trace laser grip then it will interfere with the activation of the laser. Or if the laser is activated in front of grip

Absolutely! the off on switch is operable from both sides of the laser! great item great pricing... be sure to buy a pocket holster that will allow space for the laser addon...

The only way to activate the laser is to have your hand on the grip and squeeze. It doesn't take much pressure, so it would be possible to bump it against something and activate it, but it most likely would be very brief. Also, the design of the M&P would prevent most of those issues. If you were to bump into something, it would have to fit between the back of the slide and the lower back of the grip.

The off on button is in the slide release that comes with the laser. Push side to Side.

Yes, the holster is molded to the SW 380 Auto Bodyguard with the intregal laser.I have found that this holster, and my rear pocket holster both will turn the laser on, so I am considering either modifying the button, or both holsters.

The battery life is not great. Even keeping the laser off most of the time, the battery still drains. BUT... the Viridian laser is Great! It's worth having to change the batteries every 4-5 months to have that 'instant on' when you pull the gun out of the holster. I rarely shoot my LCP. I shot it at the range to check the alignment of the laser, but it's basically a 'get off me' type weapon, so I'm not concerned about running a lot of rounds through it.

Look on the side of the laser. There is a small vertical handle with lines on it. Push it in slightly and turn it counter-clockwise. Needle nose pliers helps.

It only recognizes the Red laser, so I had to "invert" the Red and Green lasers by switching the connector wires -it is described in the SIRT Pro pistol owners manual. Not positive if all models will allow that. It just needs the "shot indicating" laser to be Red.

I've had my laserlytes activate with my crimson trace handgrips. I usually deactivate the grips and use the 9mm trainer cartridge.
